HOW TO WASH AND TAKE CARE OF YOUR BEARD

Is your beard not looking as good as it used to? Are you confused about the proper way to wash your beard? You might even ask how many times do I wash my beard per week? Are you curious about the different products that can be used to maintain your beard? We get these questions all the time, so sit back and relax and read on for some tips and tricks.

Over washing your beard and not washing your beard enough can result in a host of different problems. The key is to figure out your own beard and what works for you.

While there isn't an exact number of times you should wash your beard a week. It depends on your beard hair texture, your natural-oil production, etc. But paying attention to the little signs your beard is giving you can help you come up with the best washing schedule. Signs of over-washing include an increase in split-ends and excessive dandruff. Also, if your beard is being cleaned too often, it may look less shiny and frizzier and prone to breakage.

Washing your beard too often can also impact the texture of your hair. A total lack of moisture from stripping oils can also cause dry, flaky skin and as your skin underneath dries out so does your beard. If your beard hair begins to lose its shine, we suggest using moisturizing or styling products like beard oil, balm, or butter, that can help restore the hair cuticles by making them more soft, manageable and, most important, hydrated.

However, for some, over washing your beard is not the problem. You can also not wash it enough. Like we said above. It all depends on you and all the different variables in your life. From your genetic make up to where you live or work. It all affects the outcome. So, you still need to wash your hair and beard regularly for optimal scalp and hair health because not washing enough can cause hardcore dandruff, irritation, clogged pores, breakouts, and even hair loss. Let's be honest, nobody wants that! So how do you get it right?

 We recommend starting out by washing or shampooing your hair and beard every other day and go from there. On the days you don’t shampoo we still recommend using conditioner or just giving it a good rinse. Go from there and adjust accordingly.

This article is here to help you maintain and keep your beard just how you like it. Keep reading to learn the steps on how to properly wash your beard and other products you can use to maintain the healthy-looking beard you want.

Why You Need to Wash Your Beard

You might be wondering, "Why do I even need to wash my beard?" It goes hand in hand with washing your face. To maintain a healthy, good-looking beard, you must wash it and care for it. That goes for using the correct beard wash and conditioner and all the other products afterwards.

Washing your beard will remove all the built-in dirt, chemicals, sweat, and dust. This applies to everyone—especially when you have dirtier working conditions.

Why Use Mad Viking 

Using specialty beard products from Mad Viking Beard Company is the keyway to keeping your beard looking healthy, full, and clean.

Mad Viking Beard products are gentle and do not strip your hair of their natural oils.

The oils in the products absorb super quickly into your beard, so you get to see results in a matter of days. Mad Viking products are trustworthy because we use the most natural ingredients possible while making our products. Quality is of our utmost concern.

Step One

Rinse your bearded area and, massage beard wash or beard shampoo into your beard. After this, rinse it off with water. No need to leave it in too long. Just apply and scrub lightly.

Step Two

Massage the Mad Viking biotin beard conditioner into your beard. Let this sit for about 2-3 minutes. Then rinse thoroughly with water. Always make sure to leave it in as long as you can in the shower to maximize results.

Step Three

After getting out of the shower, pat dry and get your beard mostly dried.

Step Four

Put about four drops of beard oil and massage into the beard. You could also mix some beard balm or butter into it as well. It’s up to you to experiment and find your routine based on your own preferences. Our rule of thumb is if it seems to greasy or heavy then pull back the quantity of products being applied. A little goes a long way.

Beard Butter

The beard butter at Mad Viking is made of all-natural butters. The special butter is designed to condition and relieve itch while your hair grows out.
